You can breeze through sheet material with the Spearons ThruCut® S700 1200 FL Sawhorse
Anyone who has used a traditional sawhorse will know that there is a source of frustration inherent in the design. There is, however, an old saying that necessity is the mother of invention, and the limitations of existing products was all experienced heritage builder, Darren needed to inspire his very own solution.
“If you’re using a circular saw to cut timber on a sawhorse, and you want to cut straight through, there will come a point when you’re impeded by the sawhorse itself,” explains the company’s Jack. “That was Darren’s lightbulb moment – when he envisaged something better.”
The trestles come complete with a pair of connecting bars which conveniently store on the trestles main powder coated galvanised steel frame. The bars adjust along the aluminium top rail to suit and prevent thinner material from sagging during the cutting process. Another feature is the sacrificial anti vibration rubber strip which adorn the tops of these connecting rails and the aluminium T slot top rail. The complete package also comes with a pair of clamps which adjust along the T slot rail with or without the rubber strips attached.
The workpiece won’t flex or bow, whilst it’s equally designed to reduce vibration. At the same time, it benefits from a very robust and user friendly build. The whole thing sits on a robust and rust-free powder coated steel galvanised frame which is itself complemented by anti vibration feet.
What’s more, a tradie can set up on site in seconds with just one single motion, and then securely clamp materials with the T-Slot mounting. The two will fold down into compact, lightweight, easily stored and transportable units, which can sit on the van until called into action.
In common with many entrepreneurial inventors, it’s been a long road to bring this patented innovation from idea to commercially viable product, especially whilst Darren has been running a successful heritage building business at the same time. The reward is seeing the Spearons ThruCut® S700-1200 FL Sawhorse, together with all the accessories, now available to order and there’s plans to add to the innovative portfolio with some further ideas.
“Essentially, it makes the routine task of cutting material on site a lot easier and a pair of Spearons’ ThruCut®S700-1200 FL Sawhorses can replace as many as four conventional sawhorses,” continues Jack. “We’ve had some great feedback from the tradespeople we’ve asked to test it. They’ve told us it makes working with materials so much more efficient, safer and they love the idea.
